Award Scheme
The Rover Scout award scheme leads to the Baden-Powell Scout Award - the highest youth award in Australian Scouting. This begins with Squire Training - the training required to be completed before being invested as a fully invested Rover or Rover Knight. Following this is the Rover Skills badge - basic camping, showing an understanding of the Scouting Fundamentals and providing 10 hours of service, although the Rover Skills Badge can be completed by Squires, it is uncommon for a Squire to be awarded the badge without finishing their Crew's Squire Training Program first. Rovers who complete the Rover Skills Badge can then attempt the Baden-Powell Scout Award. Those who obtain there Baden Powell Scout Award are presented their award by the Governor of their state or territory.

Famous quotes containing the words award and/or scheme:
“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)
“Television programming for children need not be saccharine or insipid in order to give to violence its proper balance in the scheme of things.... But as an endless diet for the sake of excitement and sensation in stories whose plots are vehicles for killing and torture and little more, it is not healthy for young children. Unfamiliar as yet with the full story of human response, they are being misled when they are offered perversion before they have fully learned what is sound.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
